Just Bought A Plane? STAY OUT OF FLORIDA !

Sun-N-Fun Fly-In is a nonprofit corporation separate from EAA and
separate from Airventure...
It started as a local EAA chapter throwing a dawn patrol/fly-in, but
it began to grow and make money... When the EAA began demanding to
feed at the trough, the people doing the work in Florida did not see
any reason to just hand the money over...
For those who think of it as just the winter version of the EAA
airshow, go look at the SUN-N-FUN FLY-IN website... No where is the
EAA Logo shown... The only concession to the EAA is if you are a
member of the Florida Air Museum or the EAA, you will get a price
break on your admission fee... in small print and no EAA logo

Whereas, go to the Airventure site and the EAA logo is part of the
copyrighted banner "EAA" AIRVENTURE... So you know which fat hogs are
feeding at the trough...

I don't go to either show, much anymore... At Oshkosh the stench of
greed takes most of the fun out of it... Sun-N-Fun simply has gotten
too big and too commercial, just like AIrventure... I'm looking for a
fly-in with more of the old time fun factor...
Suggestions will be entertained... I do a mean soft shoe routine
